Exxon Still Won't Pay Punitive Fine for Valdez Spill

"Fishermen whose livelihoods were devastated by the Exxon Valdez spill urged Exxon Mobil on the 17th anniversary of the accident Friday to pay a $4.5 billion penalty that has been mired in a legal dispute... Exxon Mobil... could easily pay the penalty since it earned a profit of $36 billion last year, the largest annual earnings ever recorded by a U.S. company." - excerpt from the ENN article.
